IPhone can connect to Wi-Fi but bad internet connection?
My phone connects to my Wi-Fi network no problem but the internet connection is inconsistent at best.running a speed test from my desktop (connected by ethernet cable) I get a nice graph that looks like a plateau of 32 Mb/s, on my phone I get one spike of 13 Mb/s but mostly a very low less than 1 MB/s base. If I do the test with phone while on 3g I get a consistent plateau of 6 Mb/s.what's going on?
Also, my network is password connected and no one else is on it.

It depends on your iphone version and router version, and obviously Wi-Fi settings. Sometimes they are just not liking each other. But to me it sounds like a problem with the phone reception, specifically antenna. Bring it 2 inches close to the router and do the test. I bet you'll get better results. You probably took apart your iphone and misplaced an antenna screw, so your iphone antenna doesn't work.
E: Well looks like your devices are well compatible. Bars aren't always accurate, but if there's no problem with reception, I blame router settings. I would reset the router, test speed after reset, and if it's ok, then put the password back. Another thing is to try rebooting the iphone. It's definitely not a problem with your internet connection, since you tested it on your laptop and it's ok.

- One laptop can connect to our home Wi-Fi network but no other devices can connect? We recently set up a wireless internet connection in our house. One laptop can connect to it (the one I'm currently on) but no other devices can connect to it. It says our "Network Security Key" is mismatched. I have tried typing in all the different codes on both the router and modem on both our second laptop and an iPhone 5. How can I fix this?
